Book Guide

When a bad leak ruins the sacristy wall in his father's church, Jonathan Jefferson Weeks thinks his family's first Christmas Eve service in Detroit will be ruined too. Luckily, he and his father find a beautiful tapestry for sale in a secondhand shop—just the thing to cover the damaged wall and give the church a festive look! But there is more to the tapestry, as they discover when an old Jewish woman who is visiting the church recognizes the lovely cloth. It is her discovery that leads to a real miracle on this unforgettable Christmas Eve. Christmas Tapestry is a poignant holiday tale of two families, two faiths, and two lonely people united by a beautiful twist of fate.
